Tess's Torch Song - Dinah Shore

I had a man

He was a good man

That is, you see, what I mean is

I thought he was a good man

I had a friend

She was a good friend

I told my friend 'bout my man 'cause

I thought she was a good friend

Life was sweet

Didn’t I have my man?

World complete

Then the fireworks began

Ain’t got no man

Ain’t got no friend

I bet you can guess

Just exactly what happened

That was the end

The end of my friend

The end of my man

And darn near the end of me

Life was sweet

Didn’t I have my man?

World complete

Then the fireworks began

Ain’t got no man

Ain’t got no friend

I bet you can guess

Just exactly what happened

That was the end

The end of my friend

The end of my man

And darn near the end of me
